Pentland Firth Software GmbH faces 3 pending office actions in the Transportation, E-Commerce & Mechanical Systems technology area. These matters are distributed across 2 distinct examiners and 2 distinct art units.
Steve M Clemmons is the busiest examiner for the company, holding 2 pending office actions. This concentration means that a majority of the company's current USPTO outcomes are subject to the specific examination style of a single official. The remaining action is handled by a different examiner within the 2 distinct art units assigned to the portfolio.
Difficulty is derived from the rejection statutes on the most recent pending office action. §101-driven and multi-statute cases are graded Hard; §112-only and obviousness-type double-patenting cases are graded Easy; everything else is Medium. "Unknown" means we have not yet parsed a statute for that office action.
